I can't bear to watch the news for a few days

Another school shooting - 33 dead this time. I got the headline, and then turned off the TV. I won't read the paper for a few days - I just can't bear all the sanctimonious drivel that the mainstream press brings out at times like these. The sermonising, the stupid analysis, the hunt for meaningless experts, the "how could they let this happen", blah blah blah.

Shootings like this are like fires in that great movie "Switching Channels". Fires are great for ratings, as are shootings.

They can go to hell. They're not getting my eyeballs for a few days.
